3.    Math test Thursday
4.    Summative due Thursday

We began the day with math. We learned about fractions today. We discussed how we would divide an orange in half to share with someone else. We knew we needed to cut it right down the middle to make two exact halves. We talked about dividing lasagna among three friends. This time we would needed to split it into thirds. We then inquired how we would need to split the lasagna if we split it four ways. We found out that we would split it into fourths. We then practiced various ways we can show different fractions. We then showed our understanding in our math books. After we worked on problem solving questions.
There are 13 children lined up for the bumper cars. There are 4 bumper cars. Each bumper car can hold 3 children. Can everyone ride bumper cars at the same time? We explained using pictures, numbers, and words how one child would be left out. We answered similar questions afterwards.

After, we had physical education with Ms. Lovan.

When students returned we continued with Math. We showed our understanding of multiplication, division and fractions answering various problem-solving questions.
Ex: Altogether, 22 people need to fly on the plane. There are 6 rows of seats in each row. There are 4 seats in each row. Can everyone get one the plane?
